"I'm your sister, Solis."

Holy crap on a cracker. Did I hear her correctly? Steph is Solis? Nope. I must have misheard.

"Sorry Steph could you repeat that I think I misheard you."

She shakes her head and looks at me with eyes full of sorrow and regret. "You heard me loud and clear, I'm Solis."

Steph is Solis. Steph is Solis. Steph is Solis. I keep repeating this, trying to get it through to my brain.

Can it be? My best friend is actually my sister. Solis and Stephanie, two of the people I cared about most in the world, are the same person.

Just like that everything clicked. From us becoming friends to now. Why else could we have gotten on do perfectly while still being polar opposites. I never realised how different Steph was to me but now that I think of it it couldn't have been more obvious.

Steph has the same long blonde hair as Solis but their eyes are different. Maybe she did something similar to me to mask her true purple colour.

Another piece of the puzzle put into place. The only one left now is what the actual fuck is an ordinary but I'll worry about that later.

What's more important is the fact that Stephanie is Solis. The fact that she lied to me all these years and the fact that she was my bloody sister. I really could have done with that piece of knowledge. My life was, and still is, a shit hole, having the most important person in my life at the time there to comfort me would have been probably the best thing that could have happened. But of course she didn't think about that.

My sister, one of the kindest and most considerate people I know did that to me. She left. Sure she was technically there but it's not the same. Stephanie was there, not her, although they're the same person they are very different. Steph was my sister in many ways but not in the way Solis was.

She lied. She made my life even worse than it already was. She kept me broken.

That fucking lying bitch. In that moment I was blinded by rage and did something that you'd expect from Blaze, not me, I slapped Steph and I slapped her hard, so hard that it could be heard from the opposite side of the room.

To be honest even though I did that on impulse I don't regret it, she fucking deserves ten times more than that.

I look at her, my eyes full of rage, but she doesn't look mad. She's acting as though there isn't a red hand imprint on her face. She sighs and looks me dead in the eye, her eyes full of regret and understanding.

"I deserved that," she says softly, laughing a little. "To be completely honest I deserve a fuck ton worse. I'm your sister and I left when you needed me most. I know being Stephanie wasn't the same but it was the best I could do. Your safety was my number one priority so I couldn't tell you who I was no matter how much I wanted to. I comforted you as a best friend but I know it's not the same. I wasn't there as your sister. You have every right to be furious at me. Stay mad at me for as long as you need but just remember I did this for you. I joined you in the human world because there's no way we could have been apart. Polar opposites are meant to stay together and the same goes for sisters."

I took in a deep breath and another one and another one. Her being so sweet and nice isn't helping me stay mad at her. How can I possibly be angry when she's so empathetic?

I sighed. "It's fine Steph–I mean Solis–I get it. I'm not happy about it but I understand. Don't get all happy I don't forgive you but I'll work on it."

She smiles at me, showing off her straight white teeth. "Thank you Luna." As she says this she pulls me into a tight hug that made me forget the fact that I was mad. Damn she knows me too well, I can't stay mad at her, I'll have to work on that.

Wait if Steph is Solis that means... Suddenly I'm filled with excitement as I remember something. "Does that mean Tyler is your dimidum?"

She pulls away and her smile is instantly replaced by a frown. "No Luna he's not. I've known who my dimidum is for a long time and it's not him."

My forehead creases in confusion "if you know who your dimidum is and it's not Tyler why are you dating him?"

She looks thoughtful for a moment before she answers "it's complicated."

I raise a single eyebrow at her "I've got time, explain."

She sighs. "You're not going to drop this are you?" When I shake my head she groans. "I figured as much. God how do I explain? Well you see I met him at a party a few years ago."

"Was I there?"

"Yeah it was Jake Scott's party at the beginning of year eleven. In fact I'm pretty sure two we're both shagging when we met."

What can I say I'm no saint. I've been with quite a few guys in my time. I wouldn't say I'm a slut or anything I just don't care about waiting. If guys can sleep around and get high fives for it girls should be able to do the same thing, there is no difference so I shouldn't get slut shamed. Annoyingly, I have been many times but I don't care, the people who bitch about me only do it because they've nothing interesting going on in their own lives. Also why should I care what random people think about me? My life, my choice. Besides I was drunk at a party full of horny teenagers what did you expect?

I blushed a little before shrugging. "Can you blame me he is quite hot."

She chuckled at that "No I can't."

I smiled and she continued.

"Anyway so I was just getting a drink when I bumped into him. I'm not going to deny it, he's hot. He was then and he still is, even more so now.

"We chatted for a bit; played beer pong; played never have I ever and ended up making out. We both got quite handsy with one another and started making our way upstairs."

"Did I really have sex though all of that?" I asked incredulously. She nodded. "Huh. Interesting."

"Anyway I slept with him. He was actually the first guy I slept with, can you believe that?"

A memory sparked in my head. "I remember now. That morning we both had killer hangovers and when we had finally recovered you told me you lost your virginity but you couldn't remember his name." I laughed at the memory, damn we were both so drunk.

Her cheeks reddened in embarrassment. "Whatever, do you want to hear the rest of the story or not?"

"Yes, sorry, continue."

"Right so at the time I didn't know he was my dimidum so I just brushed off the fact that is lost my virginity to a total stranger. It wasn't that important to me, heck I was glad, I didn't want to be a virgin anyways.

So I carried on my day to day life and about three weeks later I got into a relationship with my second boyfriend, Harry."

Steph's–sorry Solis'–nope I'm going with Steph (at the time she was Stephanie to me so we're going with that)–first boyfriend was a guy called Brendon. They dated for about a year and broke up a month prior to her loosing her virginity. They were pretty serious but since they were both young they wanted to wait. In fact they broke up a week before their one year anniversary and Steph was telling me about how she was finally ready to take their relationship to the next level on their anniversary. Crazy huh.

You know why they broke up? Brendon was starting to loose interest, he'd taken fancy to a girl called Sarah. After they split he waited three months–which is longer than Steph who waited about two–before they started dating out of decency and respect for Steph which is actually really sweet. Even though it was a dick move for him to leave her they're still together so fair play to him.

"We'd been dating for about a month and by this time I'd slept with him. However he wasn't as good as the boy I lost my virginity to. I ignored it though and thought it was just me being picky. A couple days after this I bumped into him. Let me tell you it was one of the most awkward moments of my life. I was buying some blueberry muffins and saw him by the till. We mumbled a hi to each other but didn't know what else to say."

She abruptly stopped at this point. "What's wrong, why did you stop?"

"Well you're going to judge me. What I did next was pretty horrible. I never told you about it because I was so ashamed."

I grabbed her hand and gave it a comforting squeeze. "Solis look at me. It can't be that bad and even if it was I'm sure I've done worse. In fact I tell you what, after you tell me I'll tell you something absolutely awful I did to make it fair."

She nodded and continued. "Promise you won't think any less of me."

"Promise."

"Well after we both bought our things we ended up walking out of the shop together. One thing led to another and we ended up having sex in the car park."

My jaw dropped. "Let me get this straight you've fucked someone in a car park and I haven't? Damn I need to get on that."

She looked at me, flabbergasted. "That's what you took from that?! I cheated on my boyfriend for crying out loud!"

I shrugged. "I've done that too. It's not a big deal. Heck I cheated on Kai a couple times and he was one of the guys I actually liked."

She sighed, shaking her head. "You're something else Luna. Anyway what were you going to tell me you did."

I looked away, not being able to look her in the eye as I said it. "I broke girl code. After you broke up with Brendon I slept with him, twice. I know we both said we'd never go after each others ex's, I'm really sorry."

I looked at her to see a blank expression. Damn I'd really done it this time, way to go Luna, you're such an idiot. Before I could speak again I saw a smile make its way into Solis' face. "Don't worry about it. That was a long time ago besides it's not like I've slept with him or anything."

I released a breath I didn't know I was holding "thank god. Anyway carry on with your story, I want to know who this mystery man is."

Her cheeks flushed but she continued nonetheless. "Well that wasn't the only time we hooked up," she admitted sheepishly.

I looked at her wide eyed waiting for her to continue.

"Well after our second time we were both shocked. We admitted to each other that we were the best each other had had. I know that wasn't a lot considering I'd been with two different guys at the time but it's still true to this day. We kinda made a deal saying that when we were both single we'd have some fun, a bit like friends with benefits. But it didn't go according to plan, I ended up cheating on quite a few guys with him, not just Harry."

"Wait when did you find out that you were dimidums like how did you know?" I asked, confused about the he whole ordeal.

"I knew he was my dimidum about a week after the car park incident. He'd taken me out for coffee and we'd talked for hours.

"When we spoke I felt as though he was the only thing that existed. Him smiling made me smile. His jokes, no matter how corny, made me laugh. When we touched it felt as though my skin was on fire but in a good way, burning with desire and passion. Those signs were there from the start but I didn't notice until that day, I guess I just never thought that my dimidum would be human. The more we hung out the more my feelings grew and I couldn't deny it any longer, he was my dimidum. When you know you know that's just how it works."

"Do you love him Solis."

"More and more everyday."

"Then why aren't you both together and why are you with Tyler?"

She buried her head in her hands and she took in a deep breath. "Because he's never been in a relationship. He sleeps with girls once and that's it, I'm lucky as it is that I can be with him at all. A relationship would be pushing it too far, he'd want me out of his life completely.

"As for Tyler well I was hoping he'd be able to help me get over him. I care about Tyler so much, he's probably the closest thing to my dimidum without it actually being him. I thought that maybe I could live without him and just enjoy a happy life with Tyler. But as time goes on I know that that's not the case. I promised myself that I'd never cheat on Tyler and I haven't but it's been difficult, beyond difficult. I'm itching to be with him but I know I can't and it's driving me crazy. I don't know what to do."

Wow. That's a lot for one person to have on their shoulders. No wonder she's stressed all the time, I'd be too.

"Solis as much as it pains me to say this you already know the answer, you should be with your dimidum, not Tyler. Even though you're happy you're never going to be as happy as you could be. Want and desire is eventually going to take over and you will end up cheating on him. It's better to brake it off sooner rather than later. I care about Tyler a lot but I care about you more. You need to do what makes you happy even if it makes others sad, it's what's best in the long run. Besides from what what you've told me it seems like this guy really likes you. Otherwise he wouldn't have wanted to be with you more than once. Also your relationship would have been purely physical. If he takes the time to spend hours of his day just talking to you when he's clearly a fuck boy it means he does care. I think he wants to be in a relationship but he doesn't know how to ask because he's never had to do that kind of thing before."

"I guess you're right but what do I do? I can't just go up to him and say 'hey you're my dimidum so let's be together' can I?"

"You'll figure it out, don't stress. Besides we've got bigger things to worry about at the moment."

"Okay. I'll deal with this later, for now we need to focus on saving our world."

"Just one last thing, who is he?"

"You'll find out soon enough."

~*~*~

Any guesses who he is?

So that's some more insight into Solis' life, I hope you liked.

And damn this was a long chapter but I guess that's a good thing so whatever.

Lastly here are some gifs of Brendon Urie 😻😻💜💜 (did you notice the reference I made to him in the chapter):

Until next time, byeeeee.
